The Woodbury FFA chapter located at Nonnewaug High School in Woodbury will be sending seven state-winning CDE Judging teams later in October to the National FFA Convention in Indianapolis, IN. Because the Woodbury FFA members won first place in seven different state FFA judging contests during the past school year, there are 34 students from the Woodbury chapter who will attend the 86th National FFA Convention. In 2010, the Woodbury FFA chapter set a new national record of having 11 teams qualify for and compete at Nationals in the same year from the same chapter. This year, they placed first in seven different Career Development Event Judging competitions during the 2012-13 school year, qualifying them to compete nationally this fall in Louisville and compete against the best teams from each state in the country.
